American sci-fi fans are likely going to be upset over the newly released Doctor Who stamps. There’s nothing wrong with the stamps, but they aren’t going to be available stateside. These awesome pieces of postage are only available in the United Kingdom.
The Doctor Who stamps were created to celebrate the show’s 50th anniversary. There are stamps for each of the show’s 11 doctors, as well as stamps showing other characters from the series, including a Dalek stamp and a Tardis stamp. The stamps will be available from the Royal Mail at the end of March (March 26th, to be exact). You can check out the Doctor Who stamps here before they’re released.
